			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>Our list is in development. You could drive yourself nuts trying to read everything out there about Lyme.  We&#8217;ll cut through the noise to provide you with the best, up-to-date info.</p>
<p>Here&#8217;s a good place to start:</p>
<p><strong>The International Lyme and Associated Diseases Society</strong></p>
<p><a href="http://www.ilads.org/lyme_disease/lyme_brochures.html" target="_blank">ILADS Brochures</a> &#8211; to read online or download.<br />
<a href="http://www.ilads.org/guidelines.html" target="_blank">Treatment Guidelines</a> &#8211; ILADS, Joseph Burrascano, M.D., and the Infectious Diseases Society of America.</p>
<p><strong>Finding a Lyme-literate Doctor</strong></p>
<p>Your best bet is to join a state Lyme support group. Because doctors fear losing their medical licenses if medical licensing boards find out they&#8217;re treating too many patients for Lyme, they prefer not to have their names on public lists.  So it&#8217;s the convention on most online support groups to use a doctor&#8217;s last name initial.  However, group members will email you full names if you post a generic request in forums or on message boards.</p>
<p><strong>Yahoo! Groups State Lyme Support Groups</strong></p>
<p>Copy and paste the following URL (with state name added) into your browser &#8211; http://health.groups.yahoo.com/group/fullstatenamelyme/ &#8211; NOTE: Enter the full name of your state followed by lyme, no spaces. You&#8217;ll need to login to your Yahoo! account to join a group or register if you don&#8217;t have a Yahoo! account. The California Lyme Disease Association runs all these Yahoo! Lyme groups.</p>
